How silently the will of love
moves along emotive waves
to gently titillate
the contours of my hair.

I feel its tenderness
and longing to be near
and in my surrender
there’s no one here to know
the deep abiding love
emitted from my soul.
  
The grid perhaps unstable
veers and dips haphazardly
and receivers in the dark
left alone to guess, presume,
but I only see one face
and only hear one voice
calling me and pulling me
above reality.

And from the ecstasy
and beauty of soul love
there appears a loneliness
no one here can know.

How silently the will of real
claims precedence today
and forcibly removes me
from the world of only soul
to bear alone the knowing  
of love’s awesome energy!

Your journey of grace and longing is so lovely yet so poignant.  I wish you only the best.

This makes me feel rather sad, it whispers of lonliness.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.
